Hiking
Posted on 6/08/2004 11:35:00 PMby TC
Well Max and I went hiking in the Blue Mountains today. It was incredible. I had an absolute blast. It was so nice to be back doing something with nature. I haven't really done anything much outdoorsy since last year when I went camping.
We hiked the red dot trail and the blue skyline trail (the north-south loop for anyone who knows it.) It was a lot of fun and there were a lot of great views. The only bad part is that I turned my foot on one of the rocks and now its sprained. I'm wrapped up with an ace bandage and on cruches. Isn't that the greatest way to end my vacation. :-P
Ahh well, better to have ended in a blaze of glory than to have spent another day inside cleaning my apartment.

Farewell vacation, I hardly knew thee....
Posted on 6/07/2004 10:29:00 PMby TC
Well vacation is almost over but I can't really be too upset since I'm taking Mondays and Tuesdays off all month to burn up my vacation time. Rough life I live huh? *grin*
Tomorrow I go hiking in the Blue Hills with Max which I haven't done in AGES! It should be a lot of fun. I can't even remember the last time I went hiking. It'll be sunny and warm out tomorrow. Its finally gonna get to 85 degrees out. Wednesdays gonna be a scorcher at 95.
Also gonna play some Monopoly with Donald and Tim tonight, which I haven't played in a while either. Should be fun. All in all I've had a nice relaxing time off from work and the move in process is nearly complete. Should be all set until next summer when I move for hopefully the last time for a much longer while since I'm moving into the condo. I'm looking forward to owning my own place (well, mostly the bank owning it) and being able to do whatever I want to the place.
That's all for now. I'll update with information about how hiking went tomorrow.

Me + Car = Happy
Posted on 6/03/2004 10:11:00 PMby TC
Well I got my car back today and it looks beautiful. I had a minor accident at the beginning of May. I was backing out of my driveway at my old apartment and between the car parked at the edge of the driveway entrance and one of the blindspots in my car (the rear passenger side structural beam) I didn't see the other car coming down the street and backed into it. Several insurance dealings and a deductable later my beautiful car never looked better.
Being without a car SUCKS let me tell you. I've been without it since Tuesday. I really have found out how dependent I am on that thing for transportation to anywhere. It's really like an extention of me. Not sure if that's just interesting or just sad. *shrug* Whatever, I don't have to worry any more cuz its back.
In other news, the developer of my condo contacted me to let me know that all permits are now in order and the pre-construction work has begun. Here's hoping it'll be done in time for next June.

A cold in summer?
Posted on 6/02/2004 11:10:00 PMby TC
So craziness of all craziness I have a cold in the summer. This sucks. I had thought that it was just agravated sinuses due to the dust from moving but it lasted too long, came on too strong, and I've had the cough of a cold all day, in addition to the lack of strength and the lightheadedness that comes with it too.
Apparently this cold is going around to a lot of people right now. Must be something to do with the on-again off-again nice weather or the change in seasons or something.
*sigh* Hopefully I'm almost done with this cold and can enjoy the rest of my vacation. Here's hoping.

Moving is DONE!!
Posted on 6/01/2004 10:51:00 PMby TC
Ok, so I'm officially horrible at keeping this thing up to date. *sigh* Oh well...
I have finally finished moving my life to its new location. I have fully moved into my new apartment. This place is incredible.
There are two seperate floors; the first floor has the bedrooms and the basement has the living area, the kitchen and the bar. We have two dish washers, two stoves (one electric range only at the bar and another in the kitchen with gas oven and range), two refidgerators (they are old so they both combined equal about cubic volume of one modern one) two bathrooms, and there's a garbage disposal in the sink in the kitchen as well as the one in the bar.
I definately plan to have some nice dinner parties here over the course of the year.
That's all for now. I'll try to update some more while I'm on vacation.
